I used to use Magix "Audio Cleaning Lab DeLuxe 3.0",which features special features (and pre-set filters)for cleaning up/and ripping sounds from audiocassettes.Not bad.I dunno if they do a version for the Mac though?
"Digitally Re-Master and Burn to CD...Simple!" Remember this is AUDIO, so (obviously), no DVD options.(Yes,I know about the new DVDAudio standard..
but this program was made in 1992!)
"Records,cassettes,CD`s and MP3.."
"No pre-amp required.Simply connect the PC soundcard with the stereo system via a Hi-fi cable (cables supplied),record and go!" (hmmm..Obviously.)
Interesting to see,(that like Nero also),it uses its own special ASPI layer...
Worth checking out?
